I don't believe in awards. It's very good for the ego, I suppose.

Lots of shy people dress a bit too much. It's just kind of an armour. People say the same thing about me.

In this business actors who have Botox or surgery make you very aware of age. It's awful.

There are ways of doing stunts without me. I get no pleasure putting my life in jeopardy just to get the shot. Life is too short for that nonsense.

At drama school, I always picked the really evil roles. It's a great way to deal with your everyday emotions.

People think I'm so strong, but I'm very shy.

I feel sick if I have to do something for the money. I can't breathe. I'm not proud of myself.

To help people in the third world get educated and learn how to read and write is so important. I mean it is such an important human right.

Most of the women in film are there to be beautiful to the man.

Some people collect butterflies - I love beetles.

I've always felt a bit weird, very shy.

I've never been very good talking about myself.

Life's too short to wear high heels.

I'm not really involved with politics... I'm living in my cocoon with my classical music around.

I'm not into social media. I'm like from another century.

That is really the freedom that allows you to create something that is exciting because who knows what's true?

Success is very ephemeral. You depend entirely on the desire of others, which makes it difficult to relax.

I've always felt like I'm from another planet.

I'm not really keen on men wearing perfumes. It's just a bit wrong! I don't find it sexy. I prefer essential oils - patchouli is nice.
